El cardenal Vincent Nichols, a punto de dejar la sede de Westminster observa que lo que está sucediendo no es una moda pasajera, lo que ha cambiado es que «la gente ya no quiere negar su sed, quieren encontrar algo más profundo que dé una dirección a sus vidas, un contexto, un propósito, un significado y, sobre todo, una relación». Y el obispo de Trondheim, Erik Varden, que estuvo hace pocos días...

Publicado seis meses antes de la Declaración de Independencia, el apasionado texto tendrá un papel decisivo en el debate sobre cómo responder al largo memorial de agravios cometidos en nombre del Rey Jorge III a través del Parlamento de Westminster, donde los ingleses de ultramar (a diferencia de los españoles del Nuevo Mundo en las Cortes de Cádiz) carecían por completo de representación política...

In the corner of one of Westminster’s endless Christmas receptions, a Conservative veteran of the Brexit years admits they are somewhat baffled by the frenzied leadership speculation among the new Labour ranks. It was easy to forget, they said, given how many Tory leaders the party cycled through – but prime ministers were not that easy to dislodge. Theresa May’s predicament is a useful point of c...

The Tory and Labour candidates who Nigel Farage beat to win his Westminster seat of Clacton have described a Reform campaign that felt like a “juggernaut”, as police began assessing claims of overspending by the Reform UK leader. The candidates spoke after a former aide alleged that Reform UK falsely reported election expenses in Clacton, where Farage won in last year’s general election. On Monday...

Good morning. At Westminster there used to be a theory about budgets that, if they were well received on the day, they tended to go wrong later, but the ones that were widely criticised at the time turned out to be the good ones. This does not help with Rachel Reeves’s budget though, because its reception has been very mixed. On the day it was popular with Labour MPs and with the bond markets, two...

6:58 Когда речь идёт о доступной и полезной пище, фасоль остаётся недооценённой звездой. Этот простой продукт способен не только снизить уровень холестерина, но и укрепить сердце, нормализовать давление и улучшить пищеварение. Новая кампания британских поваров призвана напомнить о пользе бобовых. Об этом сообщает Independent со ссылкой на лектора по естественным наукам Райсу Эль Зейн (Raysa El Zei...

Farmers have driven a convoy of tractors into Westminster on budget day over proposed inheritance tax changes. They came despite Metropolitan Police restrictions banning agricultural machinery from the area. One tractor was parked outside Parliament on Abingdon Street bearing the slogan "Fools vote Labour", with more seen driving through Westminster on Wednesday morning. Image: A person passes a t...

Британская разведка MI5 предупредила депутатов парламента Великобритании (о!) и членов Палаты лордов (вау!) о том, что китайские государственные структуры активно пытаются шпионить за парламентом. По словам официальных лиц, Министерство государственной безопасности Китая нацелено на людей в Вестминстере через социальные сети и посредников по набору, чтобы собирать информацию и создавать долгосрочное влияние.

You can’t react to every piece of flotsam on the unending tide of nastiness that emanates from Westminster on the subject of immigration, or you’ll start to feel like you’re the idiot. Are we surprised that a Labour home secretary would want to remove any prospect of permanent citizenship for all refugees, thereby ending Britain’s standing as a place of sanctuary? Petty, vindictive, counterproduct...

«Ларри – именно тот парень, с которым стоит познакомиться в доме № 10», – сказал один из источников The Guardian в Вестминстере, добавив, что это единственный, кто на самом деле «распоряжался домом», как подтвердят полицейские у входа, которые регулярно открывали ему дверь. Ларри, официально занимающий должность главного мышелова Кабинета министров на Даунинг-стрит, 10, попал в самое сердце правит...

It’s the hottest new competition in Westminster. The accolade some MPs will do anything to win. It’s Racist of the Week. To Robert Jenrick’s intense annoyance, the Tory whip Katie Lam won it at a canter last week. Chin up, Honest Bob. Your time will come again. Though probably not this week. It may only be Monday but the Reform MP Sarah Pochin has already stretched out a commanding lead. It will t...

What started as a WhatsApp group for dozens of grieving families has ended up gathering enough momentum to reach Westminster. Warning: This article contains content you may find distressing. The parents and relatives of loved ones who have taken their own life following domestic abuse are angry, at a loss, but up for a fight. Sharon Holland is among those furious at how difficult it is to hold a p...

Герань-путешественница Польский глава МИД Сикорский привез Герань в Вестминстер (Лондон) и предупредил Европу подготовиться к «глубоким» ударам России.

By their own accounts, there have been two Westminster-adjacent victims of inflammatory language this week. One is the Reform UK leader, Nigel Farage, hurt to the point of requiring smelling salts by some politically commonplace words spoken by the prime minister. And the other is legally besieged bra baroness Michelle Mone, who has always been performatively sensitive, with chaos as her rising si...

In the imposing marble rooms of the Methodist Central Hall in the heart of Westminster on Friday, the great and the good of the progressive movement gathered at what many fear is an existential moment for their brand of centre-left politics. Keir Starmer was on punchier form than usual, telling the summit audience that he was up for the fight against the populist right’s “industrialised infrastruc...

Трамп и этикет — несовместимые вещи. Король плетётся сзади, как мебель из Вестминстера, а американский гость спокойно треплется с гвардейцем. Ему вообще всё равно, кто там за спиной — монарх или дворцовый швейцар. Впрочем, эти гопники английские никакого этикета не заслуживают, так что рыжий делает всё абсолютно правильно. Не осуждаю.

The UK's first safer drug consumption room should not be seen as a "silver bullet" to tackle Scotland's drug deaths crisis, a Westminster committee has said. MPs on the Scottish Affairs Committee have said funding for The Thistle in Glasgow should not come at the expense of other efforts to reduce drug harm, with a suggestion that mobile facilities could be used to best meet the needs of a communi...

One hundred and twenty miles from Westminster, it felt like I had arrived at the perfect place to understand the meaning of Angela Rayner’s exit from the government: Reform UK’s brief conference, a giddy and surreal gathering of about 10,000 people in a hangar-like box on the edgelands of Birmingham. News of her resignation broke a couple of hours into the event’s first day, and the symbolism was...

With a buzz of activity in parliament and mandatory back-to-school metaphors, a new political season opens in Westminster, but is that where politics really happens? Yes, in terms of people making policy and law in buildings that are world-famous for that purpose, the SW1 postcode is where it is at. But the heart of the machine beats with a weak pulse. The UK state is heavily centralised by the st...

The vast majority of policymakers in Westminster, let alone elsewhere around the UK, have never heard of the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation, the geopolitical grouping currently holding its summit at Tianjin, but hear me out on why we should all be paying considerable attention to it. Because the more attention you pay to this grouping of 10 Eurasian states - most notably China, Russia and India...

THE BELL HOTEL in Epping is a drab 80-bedroom coaching inn 20 miles as the crow files from Westminster. Since April it has housed up to 138 male asylum-seekers on behalf of the Home Office. Epping Forest District Council, which is controlled by the Conservative Party, contends that doing so constitutes a “material change of use” and the hotel’s owner should seek planning permission to convert it t...

The Rugby Football League has been told it will not receive the next instalment of government funding due next month unless it addresses concerns in Westminster about the sport’s governance. Officials from Sport England are due to meet the RFL leadership team of the interim chair, Nigel Wood, and chief executive, Tony Sutton, this week to address the issue, with the next payment of a £16m governme...
